Rivera's Repairs: Dungeon Repairwoman

M.S. Davidson

B67/100
Nineteen-year-old repair technician Tess Rivera lives on Tertius-Prime, a crumbling megacity built atop a dungeon that has been "cleared" for twenty years. The power grid fails nightly, her father's health is declining, and their freighter-home is one broken component away from becoming a coffin. When desperation drives her into the dungeon's outdated tutorial system, it malfunctions—and Tess fixes it herself, accidentally acquiring a {null} class no one has ever heard of. No combat skills, no normal leveling. Just the ability to see dungeon code, interface with broken systems, and talk to an AI that has been alone for far too long. The "cleared" dungeon is not empty. It has just been abandoned. And Tess's "broken" class might be exactly what is needed to wake it back up.

The Sect Leader System

bwfoster78

B67/100
After meeting Truck-kun, Benton — a grandfather and an overall nice man — is transmigrated into the body of Chao Su in a brutal, might-makes-right cultivation world. His career in middle management gives him ample experience leading people, and those skills should translate to running a sect. Unfortunately, things aren't that simple. Benton quickly realizes that his plan to let his recruits fight for him won't work. He'll need to get up to speed on life in a cultivation world fast, because danger is on the way: a beast tide threatens his new territory, rival sects don't like the balance of power being upset, and the demonic cultivators that destroyed Chao Su's prior sect are still out there. The MC cannot cultivate himself and advances through cultivation realms by earning points from the System, treating his sect members like a doting grandfather rather than a typical Xianxia protagonist.

Irrelevant Jack

Prax Venter

When the people of Blackmoor Cove ask about his combat role, Jack discovers his odd Hero Class and finds that parts of his game interface are riddled with exposed coding errors. The only way the town can grow and push back the unknown substance threatening to consume it is if Heroes venture into an infinitely high, ever-changing tower, kill bizarre monsters for their equipment drops, and deposit those items into a special chest. As Jack struggles to level up and help save the people he's grown to care for, he learns the true nature of this simulated world — and his destiny.

King of Fools: Silver Tongue

NoDragons

B67/100
There's never been a situation in Jasper Stone's life he didn't make worse by opening his mouth — ridiculous amounts of trash-talk and overconfidence just spill out. He's never managed to do anything with his wits. But when the God of Fools tosses him into another world for amusement's sake, he'll need to put them to use. Because there are bandits, dragons, and cultists out there — none of whom appreciate Jasper's particular gift for insults.

Saga of the Soul Dungeon

AJFoxmoor

B67/100
When Caden dies in an accidental fall, he is merged with a dungeon core in another world. He's not particularly happy to be dead, so resurrection in any form isn't too bad. The real problem? The dungeon core wasn't dead, and he has to share mind-space with it. That doesn't even account for the powerful wizard who is understandably reluctant to let a dungeon escape. And even once he manages to escape, he must found and manage a dungeon in a location fraught with complications: it sits on the border of two rival human nations, a sentient plant race claims the ground as sacred, and teams of adventurers keep wandering in looking for a living. Through it all, Caden is determined not to lose his humanity and become just another murder-hobo dungeon.

Ravnicrasol

B66/100
In the year 2252, Axel Garcia woke up early, ready to enter the next phase of his life. He has since concluded that he should have slept in. In a cyberpunk world where humanity has been pushed into futuristic fortified cities to survive against monsters, Axel navigates a life of slice-of-life moments, monster killing, and trying to do good in a world fraught with greed.

Dungeon Core Chat Room

Bluelightning42

B66/100
In this world, each race was gifted a System by the gods to compensate for their shortcomings — humans received the Skill System, elves the World Tree System. Dungeon Cores, however, were given the Dungeon Connection System: a magical internet allowing cores to barter monsters, traps, and knowledge, and to entertain each other with adventure streams. This is the story of a dungeon core unluckily spawned far from any adventurers, forced to innovate beyond its peers to find its place in the world. A slower-paced tale of experimentation, magical crafting, and steady progression — closer to slice-of-life than frantic combat, with a focus on building something extraordinary from scratch.

Demon Card Enforcer

Tharsult

B66/100
It's Drop Night, the one night every decade when the gods hand out cards to a lucky few. If you get a deck, you're a deckbearer capable of great feats — such as controlling frightening monsters. Wolfe, top enforcer for the Grimm family mob, has already been overlooked on two previous Drop Nights. People of his ilk seldom receive cards, as the gods tend to favor those who follow divine mandates. Against all odds, though, Wolfe does receive a deck at midnight — including a rare card everyone would kill to have. With the rival street gang the Cobras fielding six deckbearers and cutting into the Grimm family's trade, someone has to do the dirty work. And it isn't going to be the spoiled children of Big Man Grimm.

Mahael the Divine

Robert Blaise

B66/100
Humanity lost an ancient interdimensional war. Now demons, commanded by devil overlords, are exterminating human existence. In a final act of desperation, angels banish a lone world into a starless, lifeless corner of the universe — just out of demonic reach. All they need is a selfless soul willing to become the Final Guardian: an entity whose entire existence is devoted to postponing humanity's end. They get a volunteer. He is no saint. Sadly for the demons, he is something far worse. Every time he dies, he revives. Every time he aids humanity, he grows stronger. There is no winning against an infinitely vast demon army — but he just might be crazy enough to keep losing indefinitely.
